Why do professionally trained singers wobble when they hold a long note?

When you hold down a keyboard note for instance, it plays one constant steady note.
When professional singers hold long notes (I’m talking proper singers, not popular ones) there’s an ululation to the note, it’s clean and steady. This seems to be the effect that they are going for though.
Why do they want this? Wouldn’t a clean clear single note sound better and more neat than a wavering one?
